Michael Caine as Batman

Actor Michael Caine is trying to convince director Christopher Nolan to let
him try the Batman suit on. In a recent interview, Caine talked about his ideas for “The Dark Knight,” the
“Batman Begins” sequel. Inspired by a story written by the original Batman
writer, the thespian is hoping to include a comical scene in the picture in
which he would be distracting some bad guys in the Batman suit. Perhaps
that’s taking comedy relief too far in a movie titled “The Dark
Knight.”

In the sequel to the mega hit “Batman Begins,” the titular
hero, played by Christian Bale, takes on his nemesis, The Joker (Heath Ledger). Caine, of course, plays Alfred, the
butler.

Caine further asserted that he believes that Nolan’s script for “The Dark Knight” is already finished,
although the director continues to say otherwise and will not let Caine see
it. Warner Bros. Pictures is looking to release the highly
anticipated flick in June, 2008.
